€¢ Chapter 1 has been heavily modified and updated in many places but with the exception of a new section on mobile computers, no major sections have been added or deleted. Here is a chapter-by-chapter rundown of the changes. Also, a completely new chapter, on virtualization and the cloud has been added. However, the Vista material has been replaced by Windows 8 and Symbian has been replaced by Android. The chapter on Symbian has also been removed, as Symbian no longer is widely available. ![]() The chapter on Windows Vista has been removed completely as Vista has not been the success Microsoft hoped for. The chapter on Multimedia Operating Systems has been moved to the Web, primarily to make room for new material and keep the book from growing to a completely unmanageable size. ![]() There are large numbers of small changes everywhere to bring the material up to date as operating systems are not standing still. The fourth edition of this book differs from the third edition in numerous ways.
